CHRIS LIEBING & SPEEDY J – Collabs 3000: Metalism (20th Anniversary Edition) – 2LP – Vinyl

Description

2LP – Black Vinyl. The full album on vinyl for the first time, packaged with the classic original Designers Republic artwork.

To celebrate the 20th anniversary, Collabs 3000: Metalism, the original classic pure techno album and first full-length collaboration between techno innovators Chris Liebing and Speedy J, is remastered and reissued via NovaMute.

Originally launched by Speedy J (aka Jochem Paap) as a platform for 12 collaborations with other artists, the Collabs series laid the groundwork for what would become one of technos most compelling partnerships. The first release with Chris Liebing, Collabs 300 (featuring ‘Trick_’ / Treflon_), landed in 2004 to a rapturous response; its machine-funk intensity andunmistakable breakdowns helped define the sound of early 2000s techno whilst revealing a writing and production chemistry that demanded a larger playground for their work.

That creative spark ultimately manifested in Collabs 3000: Metalism, a landmark record for techno. Combining the pairs mastery of subversive electronics and peak-time techno, the album remains a career highlight for both artists: a smouldering collision of taut techno rhythms, sonic abstraction, and, as the title suggests, robust metallic beats.

The 20th anniversary edition of this timeless techno masterpiece has been fully remastered by Liebing himself and is available on CD and for the first time on vinyl across 2 discs.
